A spectre is haunting Europe – the spectre of war

Abstract:
After decades of peace, people believed that war has been banned from Europe. Then, all of a sudden, the harsh reality of Ukraine crisis slapped our faces. Nobody was ready for that, and presumably nobody wanted this result. But it happened, and it is still here, a burning shame. There are few chances it will fade away by itself. Indeed, it could worsen and expand further, if the right strategy is not implemented. Therefore, it is worth and necessary promoting debate and research on the issue, especially in the current geopolitical context when the Ukraine crisis seems forgotten in the media headlines and all international attention is focused on the Greater Middle East and the Islamic State’s threat.
